#Transport for #London Freedom of Information release: #TfL has disclosed figures on free travel passes issued to Metropolitan #Police officers between 2020 and 2025. The data shows a decline over the period, from 3,854 passes in 2020 to 967 in 2025, with a peak of 4,434 in 2022.

TfL said it does not hold figures on revenue foregone from the scheme and declined to provide manufacturing costs, citing commercial sensitivity under Freedom of Information rules. It also does not break down operating costs for individual concessionary schemes.

No data is held on incidents involving off-duty officers using the passes, with TfL advising such information would be held by the Metropolitan Police Service.

#Transport for #London Freedom of Information release:
#TfL has confirmed early progress on plans for a new Overground station at Surrey Canal Road.

In response to a request, TfL said initial third-party funding has been secured to support design work for the proposed station on the Windrush Line. Contractor Morgan Sindall is currently carrying out survey work at the site.

TfL added that construction will only proceed if further external funding is secured. If approved, building work would not be expected to begin before 2027.

#Transport for #London Freedom of Information release:
#TfL has published a cost breakdown for the Gallows Corner project following an FOI request. Total expenditure to October 2025, including previous years, stood at £51.5m, with a further £15.1m spent between October 2025 and February 2026. The largest costs fall within construction, including contractors and statutory undertakers such as water main works. TfL said some post-October spending relates to work originally scheduled earlier but delayed due to poor ground conditions. The flyover renewal, described as essential for safety and reliability, is now expected to reopen fully by the end of April 2026, with final project costs to be confirmed by spring 2027.
